MONTEREY, Cal. Aprj

MUNTEKEri VdI., HprlI 20.
The evidence against Simmons who was ar
rested Saturday, on charge of having set fire
to Hotet Del Monte, at Monterey, Cal, is
said to be very strong. The man who set
fire to the hotel did so with the intention of
making a clean sweep and fully succeeded.
What evidence the officers have of Simmons
guilt is not known. 1t is said that there are
witnesses who will testify that they saw the
accused walk away from the direction Of the
tire few minutes before the flames were
discovered and that when it was found that
the books were uninjured an investigation
disclosed the fact that Simmons was 100000
